Just make sure you wrap the teflon tape so it tightens up as you tighten the screw and you should be fine. Nothing is more frustrating than trying to persuade that stuff to stay in the threads when you wrap it backwards!AV8R wrote:If you don't want to use a thread-locking adhesive, wrap a turn of teflon tape around the screw (takes some finesse) and you have a reverse-nylock fastener. It's a nice field repair when you don't have access to Loctite.
